I provide play therapy for children, somatic (body-based) and parts therapy for individuals, and utilize the Gottman Method for couples therapy.
Are you feeling stuck in your life or your relationship? Do you feel like you are always on edge, waiting for the next disappointment? Do you have disruptive thoughts or worries that prevent you from being present, kind and loving to yourself and others? Over time, and with experiences that leave us feeling hurt or shamed, we create defenses that shield us from these overwhelming emotions. Unfortunately, they also block us from feeling love and connection to ourselves and those we love. Together, we can bring about greater understanding and connection with yourself and in your relationships with others.

I also works with neurodivergent children and parents.
You were going along with your daily routines, but now things are starting to feel more difficult. You’re starting to feel overwhelmed and life is just not going as you had expected. You might start to put on a brave face, but inside you are just not feeling like the version of yourself you once were. You notice your patience is thinner with the people that you usually enjoy having around you, you’ve even snapped and said something you didn’t mean before you could stop yourself. You try to fix it but then it happens again. You talk down to yourself and just cannot boost yourself out of this funk. Now you’re taking a brave step.
